I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

Barnes & Noble across the street had extra staff, all in varying levels of HP dress, handing out lens-less HP glasses, taking polaroids with a HP display standup.  Customers were dressed up too.  Small harry potters, large harry potters, a dozen harry potters all running around.. a few harry potters with *cough* nice racks...   only saw one little girl aspiring to be Hermione.

Tim's going to Hastings with his friends for the big party.

I think it's cool that people are so into it.  I can't imagine any other book series in history that has generated such interest*, or more accurately- that people have generated so much interest ABOUT.  And it isn't just "yay let's dress up and go out late" like some weird Halloween- people are actually excited about READING the books.




*L. Ron Hubbard notwithstanding obviously...

I bet traffic there today would make anyone want to start cutting.

"My wife read one page, screamed, then grew a cock."

This deserves an award.

Well, I got mine.  I'm going to reread the end of book 6 first.

Supposedly many of the spoilers that were leaked were either completely or partially false, so we'll see.

Nobody actually dies, not even Voldemort, but near the end, Hermione screams, and then grows a cock.

Grumpus called me from the grocery store this morning and asked me if I wanted this book - said there were hundreds of them there being virtually ignored.  Which struck me as really funny.

I cried twice.

Oh- Swolt- that pdf I sent wasn't it.

I read that earlier.  I thought it was a good article.

Funny thing is- I'm kind of bummed that I don't have a lot of people to discuss it with.  *lol*  Ursus read it, but he's not interested in the minutia (sp?) like I am. 

Get reading people!  Either that or the ones that have read it already need to start emailing.
